One Saturday when I was young I want to town with dad. We went to every store in town looking for a magazine. We went into a small mom and pop store. Dad was looking over the magazine rack. The lady that owned the store came over and asked what he was looking for? He told her, "honey hole magazine!!!!!" She turned white and started screaming at him to get out of the store and not come back. "WE DONT CARRY THAT TRASH HERE!!!!" We sat in the truck and laughed our [censored] off. My granddad owned the building the store was in.

We got lucky and pulled in a 29.86 lb sack in a Honey Hole tournament on Sam Rayburn for the win one year and was a memory I while not ever forget. They ran a great trail.

Stogie - Those were some great maps and I still somewhere at my place have the video Hollice Joiner did going around Fork talking about the spots listed. I ran into Jerry in the back of Monticello Cove on Bob Sandlin and just as we met to pass each other he took quite a while to visit and see how I was doing and we had a really great conversation. Not too much later I was helping out in a booth at a boat and tackle show and it ended up being right next to the Honey Hole booth and was such a great time getting to really know Jerry and the awesome Deborah Dean and how she told one girlfried of a young man who was ate up with bass fishing. She asked Deborah what she thought when her man said he was heading off to go fishing. Deborah looked at her and said "Honey, when my man say's he's going fishing, I don't have to worry about anything because I know that's exactly where he is going!" The highlight of my weekend. Great memories. Jerry spent a lot of time on Monticello.

I wish Bill would consider getting a Youtube channel and film his fishing trips and tips. He has a wealth of knowledge he has shared. I hate for it to end.

He may very well do that at some point but every episode since 2014 is available on VOD and we will be working on some different packages people can purchase for access.

Hey Mark - is it possible to get episodes pre-2014? I had the opportunity to fish on the show and would love to get my hands on a digital copy of the episode!

So this was a TV show as well as a magazine? Are there recorded programs one could watch somewhere?
EDIT- oh I see, VOD. I don't get that.

I mean the show is fading into nonexistence, at least give us some hope that the good times aren't really over for good...

Kinda late to the party.
My wife, dog, boat and cap are on the cover of the March 1993 (I think) magazine. I didn’t make the cut.
Jerry sent me about a dozen copies of that issue, and I haven’t seen them in years. I have some digging to do.
Congratulations on the great run!

Darn! I just started watching and recording the show' this year on the Pursuit Channel. I recall the magazine growing up but was never able to catch a show on tv. I really learned a lot and felt the host represented me; the Texas blue collar fisherman". The show will be missed by many bass fisherman. Hopefully there is a chance to continue this great show.
